MOTOR MAINTENANCE

Some aspects of car maintenance are pretty easy, so if you want to perform your own car oil change at home, we've got a few simple guidelines.

Car maintenance explained by Castrol® Liquid Engineers

Whether you use your vehicle as a station wagon or have a demanding commute, regular car maintenance is essential. But that doesn't mean having to go to an auto shop or mechanic for everything. If you can check your tire pressures and washer, the chances are that you can also check and change your own oil.

First and foremost that means finding the right oil and filter for your car with our quick and easy Oil Selector tool. Once you've done that - and maybe picked up an oil drain tray if you don't already have one - our step-by-step guides are designed to make car maintenance safe and easy for everyone.
